The winter mess.

 

We were learning to write about the winter weather and we got to chose our topic rain, snow or wind. I chose the snow because I really like the snow and I thought it would be easier to write about. We were also learning to paint a picture for our readers. 

I found it easy to write about the snow and think of a title. I also found it easy to think of what my sentence beginnings were going to be.

I found it hard to find a good snowman background because most of them were made out of wool. I also found it hard to find a font for my writing and the colour of my writing.

Next time I need to try to look for a background faster.    

   

Koru writing

 

We were learning to find a background and describe what the koru is. we had to do it by ourselves and I got back into class late so I didn't really know what to do. Before we started to write and describe the koru we got a sheet of paper and had to write what we noticed. 

I found it easy to find a good background and write about the koru. I also found it easy to write down what I noticed on the piece of paper we got.

I found it hard to think of different ideas to describe the koru. I also found it hard to find the right colour that would stand out so that people can see my writing.

Next time I need to get back to class on time so that I know what I do.   

Quality blog comment!

 

We are learning to recognize a quality blog comment and give reasons for our thinking. Our learning assets were Mahi tahi and Whai Whakaaro  I had to work with a buddy for this learning and I chose my friend Ekam to be my buddy for this activity.

I found it easy to copy the hands and move them to where they needed to go. I also found it easy to read the comments/ listen to them.

I found it hard to think of why I thought it was a good comment or a bad comment. I also found it hard to think of how to respond to my buddy.

Next time me and my buddy need to work a bit faster to finish saying why we think it was a good or bad comment. 

Reading-Author's purpose

 

We were learning what authors purpose is. Our learning assets were kairangahau and kaiwhakarite.

I found it easy to read the text, answer the questions and create a copy.   

Road Safety

 

 We were learning to create media by making a road safety advertisement for road safety week.  I also was learning to use mahi tahi by learning to work nicely with others in my group.  

Copyright Challenge

 

Human Caterpillar

We were learning to make a human caterpillar with our group. The number of how many people were allowed in a group was 4 groups of 5 and 3 groups of 4. Me and my friends were in a group of three as you can see. Most people were in a group of 5 and a little were in a group of 4. 

I found it easy to put the newspaper into layers of 3 so that when we stand on it it will be thick. I also found it easy to watch my friends do most of the work. Another thing that I found it easy to do is taping the newspaper together.

I found it hard to place the newspaper on top of eachother and I also found it hard to connect the newspaper together.
